At the moment in unstable when booting Hurd using sysvinit, df and
friends do not work because /var/run/mtab do not exist. It should point
to /proc/mounts, and this is done in /etc/hurd/rc when not booting using
sysvinit.
Instead of creating the symlink in /etc/hurd/rc, I suggest to create a
new init.d script to create this symlink, and drop the code from
/etc/hurd/rc. The following script is tested and found to be working
well. It creates /run/mtab because /var/run is a symlink to /run.
